The player under the gun limped and Larry Wright did as well. Jimmy Earnest, in the big blind raised, to 4,500 and only the initial limper called.
The flop fell 
and Ernest continued for 6,000. After some consideration, his opponent folded his hand and Ernest has now a comfortable stack worth 79,000.
Wright is very short stack with about 3,000 chips left.
There was a raise from early position before Steven Olson moved all-in for around 5,000 just a couple of seats along. When the action reached Scotty Nguyen in the small blind, he four-bet to 15,000 and got the original raiser to fold.
Steven Olson: 
Scotty Nguyen: 
Board: 
"Come on, a queen one time!" said Olson, after the hands were tabled before the flop, and he got his wish on the turn as the queen-of-hearts peeled off and he held on the river to secure a vital double up.
Allyn Shulman, who has 27 WSOP cashes to date and won the 2012 $1,000 Seniors No-Limit Hold'em Championship, is still in the field.
She battles with a stack worth around 20 big blinds.
Level: 12
Blinds: 600/1,200
Ante: 200
Among the players to make the money places is Frank Maggio. The defending Seniors Championship winner has a 25,000 stack as he looks to make a deep run in the event once more.
Jean-Paul Pasqualini opened to 2,600 and the player in the hijack made the call.
On the flop 
, Pasqualini checked and raised to 13,300 after his opponent bet 3,000. The latter, after some thought, folded his hand and Pasqualini grabbed the pot.
Andreas Dassopoulos, 83 years old, is the eldest player in the room and just reached is 5th WSOP cash. He told us he's used to playing the Seniors Championship event, and he cashed it once in 2010.
He has now a stack above average with around 45,000 chips.
After one round of hand-for-hand play, the tournament director instructed the dealers to be seated and announced that the remaining players were now in the money.
The room exploded in applause, as each of the remaining 888 players are guaranteed a minimum of $1,500.
As the bubble approach, Leon Shattuck is amongst the short stacks with less than 10,000 left. The American player, who still owns a WSOP ID card from the Horseshoe in 1985, will be trying to cash this event for the first time.
